I have a question that I can’t find the answer to. I own two Fairphone 4s, one with e/OS/ and another one with Google Android (one for work and one for personal if anyone’s curious).
I’ve never been completely satisfied with the camera experience with the Fairphone 4 on e/OS/. The camera om my Google Android Fairphone 4 seems to be much better. When looking around in the camera settings on Google Andriod Fairphone 4, I can’t find any info that the camera app is related to Google in any way.
So my question: Does anyone know if the camera app on Google Android Fairphone 4 is Google’s app? If not, does anyknow how if I can somehow use the Google Android Fairphone 4 camera app on e/OS/?
Since one or two releases there are two camera apps installed by default on the FP4: open camera the standard eos cam and the Fairphone 4 camera app from their android afaiu.
You should be able to switch this somewhere in the settings.
Very interesting! That would be great if it were the case. Does anyone know how I can access the Fairphone 4 (their Android) camera? I can’t seem to find anything in the settings etc.
I havent tried it but according to the releasenotes for 2.2 T its:
Fairphone 4
You’ll now be able to enjoy Fairphone’s default camera app to take pictures if you want to, you just need to enable one setting in Settings > Apps > Fairphone Camera and reboot your phone. Warning though, for now the video mode does not work, it’ll be fixed in a next release.
The 48MP/50MPx mode has been added into /e/OS Camera for this phone
I can said that the FP4 stock camera app, that I can use with eOS starting from v. 2.2, seem much better than eOS camera app. But you can’t use others apps, like GCam port. Also, I have problem with one app (LepidaID) that can’t read QR code anymore. And one thing other: the FP4 stock app can’t take video. Is a known bug and sould be correct in the future.
